Shannon Beador is not ready to place nice with Alexis Bellino. In an exclusive clip from tonight’s episode of Real Housewives of Orange County obtained by DECIDER, Beador makes it loud and clear that Bellino is not welcome on the upcoming cast trip to London.
There to help break the news are Katie Ginella and Jennifer Pedranti, who appropriately predict that Bellino will not have a great reaction to being left out of the trip.
“She’s in a really good mood,” Pedranti says, to which Ginella replies, “I know, but it’s not gonna last long.”
The former golf reporter explains why she decided to meet up with Bellino in her confessional.
“I think Alexis is owed someone face to face to say, ‘Hey, this is maybe not the trip for you,'” she says. “Let’s just give Alexis a couple drinks, we can chill and then we can be like, ‘Hey, you’re not coming to London. But it’s great to see you, thanks for the wine!’ And then we’ll go.”
Before they get into the London conversation, Bellino tells the women she sent Beador a bouquet of flowers in hopes of moving forward from their issues involving Beador’s ex-boyfriend/Bellino’s current fiancé John Janssen, who has been stirring up quite a bit of legal drama with Beador this season.
However, Ginella reveals that Beador was skeptical of Bellino’s timing, noting that she should’ve attempted to make amends “eight weeks ago.”
“My last effort was to extend and olive branch,” Bellino says in her confessional. “Unfortunately, I keep hitting a brick wall. I want peace in the group. That’s it.”
But peace looks like the last thing Bellino will be getting from Beador, who sent her a blunt message making sure she knows she’s not invited on the cast trip to London. With Bellino unaware of this, Pedranti and Ginella ominously tell her to check her phone.
The text reads as follows: “Hello Alexis. It’s Shannon Beador. I am hosting a trip to Europe with my friends and just wanted to make it clear that you are not invited. That should be quite understandable given these circumstances. Thank you for the flowers but I am not interested in any olive branch.”
As for Bellino’s response, she told her co-stars, “I’ve tried it all, girls. Now I’m fucking done.”
